Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling a window-oriented, interactive user interface with at least two overlapping display and operating windows.
  • window technology has found wide application in the operation of computer systems.
  • the "Lexicon of Computer Science and Data Processing *, 3rd edition, R. Oldenburg Verlag Kunststoff, 1991, page 303 contains the following definition for a window:"
  • a mostly rectangular area on the screen of a data display device that acts as an independent (virtual) Screen can be viewed.
  • windows different information units can be simultaneously displayed and selectively manipulated
  • the problem constantly arises that several windows are displayed on the user interface of a data display device, which partially overlap. This creates a virtual stratification of windows that are virtually one above the other. Only the content of the quasi-top window, i.e. the currently active window, fully visible and e.g. accessible for operating operating objects located therein. The windows behind it, i.e. the currently inactive windows are partially or completely covered by the active window and are therefore at least not fully visible.
  • Technical devices are controlled and operated with the aid of digital, programmable devices, which in many cases can also represent an automation system or can be a component of such.
  • Technical equipment includes all types of technical devices and systems, both individually and in e.g. understood via a fieldbus networked arrangement.
  • An entire production facility is also regarded as a technical facility.
  • an entire technical process with locally distributed resources e.g. in a chemical plant, a manufacturing plant or a processing plant.
  • the programmable devices used for the management of technical devices have a constantly increasing range of functions.
  • the operability of the devices is becoming increasingly important.
  • distributed automation systems can have special devices that form the interface between an operator and the automation system.
  • HMI devices Such devices are generally referred to as HMI devices, whereby the term “human machine interface *” is abbreviated with HMI. Furthermore, it has become common to refer to this device class as devices for “operating and monitoring * technical facilities, abbreviated as“ B + B devices *. These devices, which are virtually in front of the actual devices used for the direct control of a technical device, have an increasing functionality. An overview of the range of functions of HMI devices can be can be obtained, for example, by viewing the Internet representations of Siemens AG, Automation & Drives division at http: // www. ad. Siemens.
  • HMI device is to be understood as a generic term and includes all components belonging to this device group, eg "Operator Panels 1 ", which are often also abbreviated as "OP *.
  • HMI devices have an increasing functionality and take over, for example, in one Networked automation system functions that can generally be viewed as pre- and post-processing of data of the technical device to be controlled. This not only relieves the load on a central control device, for example a programmable logic controller, but also enables functions that are possible with an HMI device Comfort, quality and safety of operation by an operator improve, eg the overview of the equipment to be operated and the error-free operation.
  • fault messages which signal an undesired state of the device and generally result in the targeted input of operating actions by an operator into the HMI device, have a special position. With these, the malfunction event of the technical device, which has been influenced so that the technical equipment returns to a desired state as possible.
  • problems can arise if important window contents are covered by currently active windows. Contained e.g. In the case of an HMI device, if a window is an important fault message for a technical device, problems can arise if this window is at least temporarily replaced by another active window, e.g. is partially covered in which a person performs a normal operating action, e.g. adjusts the setpoint for a process parameter.
  • Display device known.
  • a control element with which the images can be adjusted in terms of size and position on the screen.
  • a window setting mark which is shown on the border lines of adjoining windows and can be moved by means of the control element, the border lines also being shifted. This allows the section shown in a window to be set manually.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a method for controlling a window-oriented user interface and an HMI device operated according to this method, with which the problems described above can be avoided.
  • Another object of the invention is to create a corresponding automation system and an associated computer program product.
  • the other display window and operating window are reduced so much that they are displayed completely on the interactive user interface without overlapping with the one display and operating window.
  • the other display and operating window is reduced to the size of an icon independently, i.e. a symbol that represents the affected display and operating window.
  • critical content of the iconized window e.g. have been triggered by malfunction reports from a technical system, can be identified by a corresponding design of the icon.
  • This embodiment of the invention is particularly advantageous if the window-oriented user interface has to be displayed on a small-area display unit, e.g. on the LCD display of a handheld unit.
  • Activation of a display and operating window is advantageously triggered with an optical pointer. This can be done by an operator e.g. can be manipulated using a mouse-like control device. If the optical pointer is brought close to a display and control window, or e.g. passed over this, it is automatically reduced according to the invention to a still displayable size or icon size.
  • a text is displayed on the user interface in a spatial proximity to the optical pointer, which contains selectable parts from the reduced display and control window. If, for example, the reduced window contains a fault message, the text can refer to the content of the current fault.
  • the text is advantageously output when the optical pointer on the user interface is in spatial proximity to the reduced or iconized other display and operating window. With this, the relation of the text on the optical pointer to the respective reduced display and operating window can be clarified for an operator.
  • an HMI device used for monitoring and operating a technical device is operated using the method according to the invention.
  • the advantage is particularly evident when the HMI device is designed as a handheld device or operator panel, since such devices generally only have relatively small display units, such as Touch screens or LCD displays.

Abstract

L'invention concerne la commande d'une interface utilisateur (210) interactive à fenêtres, comportant au moins deux fenêtres d'affichage et de commande (220,230) se chevauchant. L'invention est caractérisée en ce que l'activation d'une des fenêtres d'affichage et de commande (220) provoque la réduction automatique de l'autre fenêtre d'affichage et de commande (230), à tel point que cette dernière fenêtre apparaît intégralement sur l'interface utilisateur (210) interactive, sans chevaucher la première fenêtre d'affichage et de commande (220). Il est préférable d'activer une des fenêtres d'affichage et de commande (220) au moyen d'un pointeur optique (211).
